New build mastic in Friockheim
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over with a sealant suited to each area. Common call-outs are for gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and sealant that never bonded to the surface, on plot handovers, show homes and bathrooms & en suites.
For a place like Friockheim, the journey and access are planned in advance. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll give you a quote.
Letting agents and landlords in Friockheim can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
How it works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on. The job generally takes a few hours in a single home. Outside jobs in Friockheim need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Friockheim: your questions answered
What guarantee comes with new build mastic in Friockheim?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Will you come out to Friockheim?
Yes, Friockheim is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
A new house dries and settles for a year or two, and sealant is often rushed onto dusty, unprimed surfaces. Either can make it fail early.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
White and clear are the most common, but other colours are available. We choose one to suit the room and agree it with you.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Friockheim and the rest of Angus.
Should I go to my builder first?
Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. If that doesn’t work out, we’re happy to quote with our 12-month guarantee.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Broken tiles or a split tray
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
If you’re not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents as they wear the bead.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Small faults turn into leaks if left in a busy bathroom.
What we are called out for in Friockheim
Fresh sealant can be knocked or cut by trades finishing off. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
Around Friockheim, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
